--log_path option does not take effect

[cjydayang]

Hi， @mdmintz ：
I noticed this change in v1.34.24 ：
5c96940
sb_config.log_path = 'latest_logs/' # (No longer editable!)

is this means the --log_path option will not take effect？What is the reason for this change？

Hi @cjydayang I changed this for safety reasons. Because the latest_logs/ folder is cleaned out between test runs unless --archive-logs is set, I didn't want someone to accidently set the latest_logs folder to an important location on the file system. If it stays as latest_logs/, users won't be able to accidently change the location to an important folder and delete the contents inside.

If someone really wanted the logs location to be different, they could fork/clone the repo and make the changes they wanted. But not from the command line with an unchanged version of SeleniumBase.

@mdmintz thank you for your reply ，Although I think edit log path is necessary in some cases and someone should take responsibility for their actions if they edit log path, I still agree with you
